Dakota City Heritage Village

Dakota City Heritage Village offers visitors the chance to experience rural life in Dakota County in the late 1800s and early 1900s. A recreated historic village and museum, Dakota City is located on the Dakota County Fairgrounds on the south edge of Farmington. Dakota City's five-acre site includes 22 buildings that help to tell the story of life in a 1900 rural town. Dakota City offers special events throughout the year where visitors will experience living history firsthand with costumed interpreters and demonstrations. The Village and Museum are also open for school and youth programs, tours, and the Dakota County Fair.
